Multigrade Viscosity, Low-Ash Oil Provides Long-Lasting, All-Weather Protection for Natural Gas Engines

Formulated for use in stationary and mobile natural gas engines, Monolec® Natural Gas Engine Oil (8845) is made from a synergistic blend of high-performance base fluids, salicylate detergent chemistry and superior wear-reducing additives. The resulting low-ash, engine-cleaning blend provides the perfect long-lasting wear protection without the accumulation of heavy deposits.

Monolec 8845 is a proven multigrade performer in various engine makes and models, even under severe operating conditions. It can be used with sparkplug-ignited engines, including mobile applications such as buses with converted Cummins and Detroit diesel engines.

Proprietary Additives

 N/A LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Monolec® Natural Gas Engine Oil contains Monolec.

Monolec® wear-reducing additive creates a single molecular lubricating film on metal surfaces, vastly increasing oil film strength without affecting clearances. An invaluable component in LE’s engine oils, industrial oils and many of its other lubricants, Monolec allows opposing surfaces to slide by one another, greatly reducing friction, heat and wear.
